    Beautiful instrument. What is the fretboard made of?

    FS/FT: Epiphone EBM-5 CH active 5-string - red

    Yes, the sale is still pending - I expect the bass to be gone by the end of the week. Will post an update here if that changes, but that's unlikely.

    FS/FT: Epiphone EBM-5 CH active 5-string - red

    Here's a photo of the interior of the control cavity. Everything appears to be unmodified, stock, and extremely clean - with the obvious exception of the jack with the rusted end, which I'd guess is aftermarket. MTA: Sale pending as of June 28.

    FS/FT: Epiphone EBM-5 CH active 5-string - red

    How does it sound? I'm relatively new to the bass, and don't know how qualified I am to review the tone, but I just went back and played it for a bit with a good headphone amp. I'd say 1.

    FS/FT: Epiphone Thunderbird IV - red metalflake finish

    This Epiphone Thunderbird IV has a glossy red metalflake finish that was applied by a body shop, and it looks excellent - no flaws, runs, or unevenness that I can see anywhere. The two other things that aren't stock are the 3-way pickup selector switch, and the dice-style knobs. I'm told this...
